84 SEATS AND RESTRAINTS
Warning (Continued)
killed if the passenger frontal airbag
inf lates and the passenger seat is in
a forward position.
Even if the passenger sensing
system has turned off the front
outboard passenger airbag(s), no
system is fail-safe. No one can
guarantee that an airbag will not
deploy under some unusual
circumstance, even though the
airbag(s) are off.
Never put a rear-facing child
restraint in the front seat, even if
the airbag is off. If securing a
forward-facing child restraint in the
front outboard passenger seat,
always move the seat as far back as
it will go. It is better to secure child
restraints in the rear seat. Consider
using another vehicle to transport
the child when a rear seat is not
available.
The passenger sensing system is
designed to turn off the front
outboard passenger frontal airbag and
knee airbag if:
.
The front outboard passenger seat
is unoccupied.
.
The system determines an infant
is present in a child restraint.
.
A front outboard passenger takes
his/her weight off of the seat for a
period of time.
.
There is a critical problem with
the airbag system or the passenger
sensing system.
When the passenger sensing system
has turned off the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag and knee
airbag, the OFF indicator will light and
stay lit as a reminder that the airbags
are off. See Passenger Airbag Status
Indicator 0 129.
The passenger sensing system is
designed to turn on the front
outboard passenger frontal airbag and
knee airbag anytime the system
senses that a person of adult size is
sitting properly in the front outboard
passenger seat.
When the passenger sensing system
has allowed the airbags to be enabled,
the ON indicator will light and stay lit
as a reminder that the airbags are
active.
For some children, including children
in child restraints, and for ver y small
adults, the passenger sensing system
may or may not turn off the front
outboard passenger frontal airbag and
knee airbag, depending upon the
person’s seating posture and body
build. Ever yone in the vehicle who has
outgrown child restraints should wear
a seat belt properly — whether or not
there is an airbag for that person.

Warning
If the airbag readiness light ever
comes on and stays on, it means
that something may be wrong with
the airbag system. To help avoid
injury to yourself or others, have
